***Plague!*** is a [board game](/source/Board_game) first published by [B&B Productions](/source/B%26B_Productions) in 1991, and was designed by Steven Barsky.

## Description

*Plague!* is about the arrival of the [Black Plague](/source/Black_Plague) in Weymouth, England, in 1348.

## Reception

[Richard H. Berg](/source/Richard_H._Berg) comments: "*Plague!* is not a game to play to see who wins, mostly because it is so chaotic and random at times. It is a game that delightfully highlights the fact that, as with many trips, it's not where you’re going but how you get there."[1]
